many spies at Los Alamos?

used to say "many top scientists at Los Alamos" were spies, I changed it to "one". Any better references? 67.124.100.2 20:54, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)

  • Only one "top" scientist was a spy (Klaus Fuchs) to my knowledge, though a few other people at various levels of the project were also spies (Harry Gold and Theodore Hall). But yeah, I think "many" is stretching it. --Fastfission 04:35, 11 Nov 2004 (UTC)

duplicate page -- how to move/redirect?

THere is this page and ALSO Operation Alsos. I am merging them to here. Then if somebody knows how to delete the old one and create a redirect... it would be great. 64.168.30.87 05:11, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

  • Done. For information on creating redirects (for future reference), see Wikipedia:Redirects. They are very easy once you learn the little trick! ;-) --Fastfission 06:08, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

extensive spy network?

Stalins "extensive spy network" is KGB.stop introducing emphemisms.

Well... Actually, the Soviets has an extensive KGB network (though the acronym was NKVD then, I think), and an extensive GRU network, and an extensive Communist Party USA network, all operating in parallel. So the phrase is a considerable saving on words... ww 05:21, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
